Resistor colour code calculator for 4, 5 and 6-band resistors: colours to ohms and tolerance, or a value to its bands, snapped to E12, E24 or E96.

Bands yellow, violet, red, gold mark 4.7 kΩ ±5%: any part between 4.465 kΩ and 4.935 kΩ is in spec. The value is in the E6 series.
Bands: yellow, violet → 47; red → ×10^2.
The resistor colour code in IEC 60062 marks a value with coloured bands: two or three significant digits, a multiplier band that gives the power of ten, a tolerance band, and on 6-band parts a temperature-coefficient band. It works both ways here: pick the colours to get the resistance and its tolerance range, or type a resistance to get the bands.
The default, yellow violet red gold, reads 47 × 10² Ω = 4.7 kΩ ±5%, so a part measuring anywhere from 4,465 Ω to 4,935 Ω is in specification. Going from a value to colours, the value can first be snapped to the nearest IEC 60063 preferred value: 5 kΩ is not in E12, so it becomes 4.7 kΩ, yellow violet red.
Gold and silver never start a reading because they carry no digit. When bands are faded or look alike, confirm the value with a multimeter.
Doğrulama kaynağı: IEC 60062 table: 4,7 × 10² Ω, gold = ±5%; 4700 × 0.95 / 1.05
Doğrulama kaynağı: IEC 60062 table: 100 × 10¹ Ω ±1%
Doğrulama kaynağı: IEC 60063 E12 neighbours 4.7k and 5.6k: 5000/4700 = 1.064 < 5600/5000 = 1.12

The first two bands are digits, the third is the multiplier and the fourth the tolerance. The digits run black 0, brown 1, red 2, orange 3, yellow 4, green 5, blue 6, violet 7, grey 8, white 9. Yellow, violet, red, gold therefore reads 47 × 10² = 4,700 Ω, with gold meaning ±5%.
Start from the end away from the gold or silver band. Gold and silver have no digit value in IEC 60062; they only appear as a multiplier (×0.1 and ×0.01) or a tolerance (±5% and ±10%). The first band usually sits closer to its lead, and the tolerance band is often spaced apart from the others.
A 4-band resistor carries two significant digits, enough for the E6 to E24 values used for ±5% to ±20% parts. A 5-band resistor carries three digits for the E48 to E192 values of ±2% and tighter parts: brown, black, black, red, brown is 100 × 10² Ω = 10 kΩ ±1%. A 6-band resistor adds a temperature-coefficient band.
It gives the resistance drift per kelvin in parts per million: brown 100 ppm/K, red 50, yellow 25, green 20, orange 15, blue 10, violet 5 and grey 1. A 3.3 kΩ resistor with a red band changes by 3,300 × 50 × 10⁻⁶ = 0.165 Ω per degree, about 4.1 Ω over a 25 °C rise.
A missing tolerance band means ±20%. Brown, black, orange with no fourth band is 10 kΩ, and any value from 8 kΩ to 12 kΩ is within specification. Such parts come from the E6 series (1.0, 1.5, 2.2, 3.3, 4.7, 6.8), whose steps of about 47% suit the wide tolerance.
Doğruluk, girdilerinize ve yöntemin varsayımlarına bağlıdır. Ondalık aritmetik 50 anlamlı basamak kullanır; ancak tahminler, sayısal yöntemler ve kaynak veriler daha az hassas olabilir. Gösterilen değerin yuvarlanması bu sınırları ortadan kaldırmaz. Bağımsız kaynaklarla doğrulanan çözümlü örnek sayısı: 9.
